Survival Summary This is the third novel in Davies's major work, The Deptford Trilogy. While it is not necessary to read the novels in this trilogy in sequence, doing so makes each story more complete and interesting, and clarifies the relationships between some of the characters. This particular novel tells the life story of the unfortunate boy introduced in The Fifth Business, who was spirited away from his Canadian home by one of the members of a traveling side show, the Wanless World of Wonders. Magnus Eisengrim, now a master magician, describes his life as an innocent child who was introduced not only to rape, but to the sad world of the "freak" show, as he traveled throughout his formative years with these unfortunate people. The main good which came out of this was that he developed empathy for the members of the side show, and that he taught himself the skills of magic and became an accomplished magician. A turning point in his life occurred when he got away from this terrible environment and became an understudy for a famous English actor. In emulating this man, he moved on to become a marvelous illusionist.

Home Robertson Davies An Interview with Robertson Davies Search amk.ca This page last modified: 3 May 2004 Index Biography Bibliography Interviews ... Obituaries Canada's Champion of Letters In one of his last interviews, writer Robertson Davies talks about computers, the Bible, tortured artists, and The Great Canadian Novel. With the publication of the novel Fifth Business in 1970, Robertson Davies - already an accomplished playwright, journalist, and scholar - earned a reputation in literary circles as Canada's greatest writer. A quarter of a century and more than ten major works later, the "Canadian" label began wearing too tightly. In a business that often bestows its highest recognition posthumously, Davies, who died at age eighty-two on December 2, achieved in his lifetime that rare dual triumph of worldwide critical acclaim and commercial success. To readers, Davies spoke with a number of voices - crusty Victorian, satiric wit, learned scholar, flamboyant dramatist, philosophical observer. Always, though, he invested principal characters with two traits, intelligence and curiosity, which drove all his stories. Essential reading for the Davies neophyte is The Deptford Trilogy - a cradle-to-grave story that revolves religion, psychoanalysis, Canadian history, and magic around a mysterious death - but

Han avled den 2 december 1995 i Orangeville, Ontario. Som barn medverkade han i flera teaterproduktioner och kom att utveckla ett livslångt intresse för dramatik. Hans avhandling "Shakespeare´s Boy Actors", blev färdig 1939, samma år som han studerade för en skådespelarkarriär utanför London. Davies tillbringade följande år med att spela mindre roller i London och han gifte sig med Brenda Mathews som han träffat tidigare när han läste vid Oxford och hon arbetade som scenograf vid teatern. Davies återvände till Canada 1940 som litterär redaktör för Saturday Night Magazine

Davies, Robertson daviesr Learn More About A truly great book should be read in youth, again in maturity and once more in old age, as a fine building should be seen by morning light, at noon and by moonlight. Fanaticism is ... overcompensation for doubt. Authors like cats because they are such quiet, lovable, wise creatures, and cats like authors for the same reasons. Nothing is so easy to fake as the inner vision. Canada is not really a place where you are encouraged to have large spiritual adventures. Comparatively few people know what a million dollars actually is. To the majority it is a gaseous concept, swelling or decreasing as the occasion suggests. You never see what you want to see, forever playing to the gallery. Few people can see genius in someone who has offended them. If I had my way books would not be written in English, but in an exceedingly difficult secret language that only skilled professional readers and story-tellers could interpret. Then people would have to go to public halls and pay good prices to hear. Nothing is so easy to fake as the inner vision.
